"It also seems that friendship holds cities together" (Nicomachean Ethics VIII, 1155a). This type of friendship has usually been translated as concord. The opposite, discord, is enmity and, as a consequence, confrontation.
The purpose of this round table is to study whether concord was possible in the world of revolutions (Civil War, political and economic modernisation, cultural conflicts, the revolution of '68, terrorism) suffered by Navarre between 1936 and 1982. The aim is to record this phenomenon and to reflect on it on the basis of a conception of politics in a broad and noble sense that has to do with community life and the search for the common good.
The papers that wish to contribute to this roundtable can be based on axes such as places (casinos, circles, athenaeums, companies, universities, schools), ideas (foralism, education, amnesty and reconciliation, religious pastoral care) or societies (family, associations, brotherhoods, organisations, etc.). The communications may include relations with broader perspectives (such as national or international) and study broad periods (the comparison between generations, for example).
In any case, they should try to point out the good that was sought in the concord under study and, if possible, show its result, be it positive or, perhaps as a result of a latent or supervening confrontation, negative. The aim of the roundtable is threefold. Firstly, to rethink and update a subject with a long philosophical tradition, seeking the interaction of the participants with different historical and cultural perspectives on Navarre. Secondly, to analyse Navarre's civil society as a space of friendship from a transversal point of view that crosses cultures, traditions and histories. Finally, to seek interdisciplinary contributions that can study the History of Navarre by incorporating perspectives from Philosophy, Literature, Law, Religious Studies and Political Science.

The 19th century in Navarre is undoubtedly one of the most turbulent in its history. It began with the War of Independence and, after several wars, ended with the Second Carlist War. The aim of this round table is to analyse the different forms of conflict that manifested themselves in the community throughout the 19th century.

According to Pierre Nora, "self-consciousness emerges from the signs of what has already happened". These signs, the places of memory, shape the public space in which the life of a society unfolds and evoke its past.
In the case of civil conflicts, many of them uncivil, the management of this memory becomes very complex, for what some want to remember, others prefer to be forgotten. This round table proposes to open an academic dialogue on the tangible traces of the conflicts that have confronted the people of Navarre from the Middle Ages to the present day, addressing issues such as the semiotics of the confrontations, historical memory and its visibility, the places of memory and oblivion, their signposting, patrimonialisation, touristification and contestation, or the current political, social and cultural uses of the conflicts of the past.

Written and visual memory represents one of the most significant axes of historical discourse for understanding what messages were devised and formalised with respect to the events and facts of the past.
On the basis of the new publications published in recent decades aimed at discovering the contextual logics that articulated the historiographical accounts and analysing the intentionality of the promotion of some of the artistic achievements and commissions, this round table aims to include those works that study the narrative, documentary and iconographic treatment and reflection of the conflict on its different levels.
We will therefore welcome all those proposals which, focusing on memorial production, understood as the programmatic core of the different political powers, family and social groups, ecclesiastical circles, movements of cultural and intellectual renewal, etc., intentionally (or not) articulated and shaped the images and intellectual spaces to generate a posteriori or transmit a private reading of the conflicts, tensions and confrontations in which they played a leading role.
It is therefore important to provide an integrated reading and a critical view of how the documentary testimonies, stories, images and iconography formulated around the conflict were structured, as well as the projection of their value over time, both in the chronological, historiographical, artistic and cultural memory that today forms part of the historical heritage of Navarre.
In this sense, this round table is open to all historical periods and to all the disciplines of history, art history, literature, law, historiography, documentation, etc.
